## Description

Product Description The remarkable Q Series bookshelf speakers excel when space is limited. Featuring the signature KEF Uni-Q driver array with Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) port design, the Q350s deliver detailed natural sound with high clarity and tight bass. A powerful 6.5in. driver delivers deep powerful bass perfect for movies, television, and music. "Sit anywhere" Uni-Q Sound At the heart of the evolved Q Series is the Uni-Q Driver Array. KEF's signature innovation places the tweeter in the acoustic centre of the midrange cone, bringing the acoustic ideal of a single point source closer than ever to realisation. The result is a more detailed, more accurate three-dimensional sound image, which is dispersed more evenly throughout the room than is possible with a conventional speaker. Uni-Q's ultra-wide dispersion is further enhanced by KEF's 'tangerine' waveguide over the tweeter dome. Uni-Q sound taken to the next level With the addition of the damped tweeter loading tube providing a gentle termination of sound produced from the back of the tweeter, lower treble performance is improved dramatically and a new low-distortion inductor on the crossover provides cleaner bass. To optimize the resolution and purity of the Q Series bookshelf speakers, the Uni-Q driver has been repositioned to the centre of the cabinet to reduce unwanted internal resonance and adds refinement to their sonic clarity and detail. CFD Designed Port Featuring a Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) port design with the port repositioned to the rear of the speaker, clarity is improved by reducing the audibility of the midrange leakage through the port. The geometry of the ports have been tuned to minimise turbulence at higher levels resulting in a reduction in port noise and less LF compression. Q Series Optimised To optimise the high-resolution sonic image of these speakers we re-positioned the Uni-Q driver at the centre of the cabinet. This avoids any possibility of standing waves and reduces resonance within the enclosure. By facing the low frequency port to the rear, we reduce the audibility of midrange leakage. About KEF Founded in 1961, KEF has been providing the world's audiophiles with unparalleled sound quality. KEF is at the cutting edge of field-leading acoustic research, and a standard for everyone else to live up to. Innovation is what sets KEF apart. The results are plain for all to see… and hear.

Review: Great value for money - Really good quality and sounding speakers for the price. Using these as surround rears and cannot fault them in anyway, they deliver with plenty bass and lifelike sound. I upgraded to high end cables which also helps and better soundstage too from the speakers. Overall very happy and thank you.
Review: Clear detailed sound that is bigger than you'd expect - I bought these as part of a plan to improve the old CD based hi-fi system I had, and explore music streaming. The details of all that are not really relevant here - apart from to let you know where I started from. What you do need to know is that I now have a system that consists of a Wiim Mini Streamer feeding via a Fibre Optic cable a Cambridge Audio DAC Magic 100 which in turn feeds a current model Rega Brio Amp which drives the Q350 speakers. The input I use is desertcart Music Unlimited (over WiFi) the vast majority of which is in CD Quality (44.1 KHz 16 Bit) or higher and my opinions are based on listening to this setup. To my ears the Q350’s sound very good indeed - the result is clear, very detailed and sounds much bigger than you’d expect given the size of the apeakers. The bass response is excellent in that you can hear what is going on rather than an indistinct rumble and I don’t find the treble overpowering even though I can hear small details that I hadn’t noticed before. FWIW I have the EQ turned off in the Wiim and there are no other tone controls here but I’m happy with how they sound. They are in a moderately furnished room that is roughly 14ft x 16ft, they are on either end of a unit 6.5ft apart and 18” high, they are sat on isolating foam pads (not the stick on rubber feet supplied with them). Although they are a bit too close to the rear wall (at 7”) I don’t feel the need to put the foam bungs in the rear ports (although I did try them to see if they helped - they didn’t really). FWIW these are two part affairs so you can either put the whole things into the ports or push the middle part out and use a sort of foam pipe to get less attenuation - I did find that if you put the whole things in you could blow them out with a bit of bass heavy music. You might need them though. The Brio is rated at 50w per channel and believe me it is more than capable of driving the Q350’s to the sort of sound level that will really annoy the neighbours whilst still sounding very clean. I tried my old Marantz PM-66SE amp with them and it also worked fine. There are reports of the Q350’s being difficult to drive but if your amp has some grunt you should be ok. Overall then the Q350’s are great from my perspective, but there are some caveats - there have to be some “buts” don’t there? My opinions are based on what I hear using this current set-up and my rather old ears in my living room – YMMV. I also only listen to the music I like which goes from Pink Floyd and Led Zeppelin through Talking Heads, Steely Dan, The Crusaders, Nirvana, Eminem, Linkin Park and Stormzy amongst others. How they would work with classical music I don’t know. Loudspeakers are always at the end of a Hi-Fi system and can only deal with what they are fed and the Q350’s will quite ruthlessly expose any weakness upstream, so if you are upgrading an old system like I was you may not want to start here. They will also reveal poor recording quality so if you are expecting your old records to be reinvigorated you might be disappointed. Although they sounded good straight out of the box they do improve a bit with use, they’re electromechanical so need to bed in a bit, like a new car does. Having done some research I was all set to buy the Elac Debut 6.2 at £299 but noticed these on offer at £349 in early January this year so I bought them on impulse. The current RRP is £549 although you can still get them at £439, I don't understand this pricing policy and I don't think it's helpful. Finally there is the entirely subjective issue of how they look, you don’t get grills (they’re about £30 extra) but I don’t mind that. Mine are black and more or less match the rest of the AV gear at that end of the room; my wife doesn’t seem to mind them. They are distinctive though and might not suit everyone.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Are the Q 150 ready to wall hang?...Do they have a keyhole socket, or would I need to buy extra parts?**
A: These are best on stands. Unlike the Q100s which are front ported the Q150s are rear ported so best to not have too close to a wall. If you really want to hang them it would be best to fit the supplied Port bung foams. You will be limiting their capability and bass response by doing this.

**Q: Do these speakers come with stands?**
A: No they don't.

**Q: how long do these take to 'bed in'? sound is a bit thin, although only played for a few hrs so far**
A: Straight away.. you trying to say second hand is better than new? or that kef doesn't have the money / patience to do that themselves? come on man... think it through

**Q: How can you use them with your TV**
A: Hi there, you could get a amp to power the speakers. If you want an HDMI input, you would probably need to look at an AV amp/receiver, as regular stereo amplifiers tend not to offer that type of connection. Having said that you could probably connect via optical or even auxiliary/line input. 
 
Then he would need the relevant cable to connect the TV to his amp, not forgetting speaker cables to go from the amp to the speakers.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent Super Speaks 👌
*by J***R on 28 July 2022*

Well i bought these beauties at £379.00 last month because I'd already bought the Q150's last month too at £299.00 Had to buy these Q350's because i was so amazed of the Q150's just had to try and buy these and was a tad disappointed 😞 as they are harder to drive but as i use the same amplifier i bought an excellent speaker 🔊 switching unit from Amazon (av-link) AD SPK14 at £25.00 at 26% discount and that's a excellent piece of kit, Totally solved my problem. Anyway the KEF Q series (150 and 350) that i now own Thank you Amazon for great discounts and KEF for your superb speakers 🔊 Will update when I've burned them in (or run in) Super listening folks 👌 Joner ( bass reflex speaker designer ) patent secured. Sound Engineer and Electronics engineer qualified. HiFi nut since I was a nipper.
